Phonology

Modern Nurian has a typologically unusual distinction between dental and alveolar stops and between many types of fricatives:

  • t d = alveolar stops
  • th dh = alveolar spirants (slit fricatives)
  • þ đ = (unaspirated) dental stops
  • þh đh = dental spirants
  • s z = dental/alveolar sibilants
  • ṡ ż = postalvelar sibilants

Initial td- for the name Tdap

Vowels: <a e i o u y æ ie ea eo>

Consonants: <p t k b d g m n ŋ f s ṡ x v z ż ȝ h l r> /p t k b d g m n ŋ f s θ x v z ð ʕ h l r/

HGCS-like sound changes (Proto-Tergetic *p b φ -> f p b), and umlaut
